Rofnet (AS402164)
Personal homelab ASN used for learning and experimentation (BGP, IP, routing policy, and self-hosted services). Not a commercial network and no SLA.
About
Rofnet (AS402164) is a personal homelab network used to experiment with IP routing, BGP announcements, and basic network operations. Outages and maintenance may occur without notice.
Goals
Learn by doing: BGP policy, filtering, monitoring, and safe operations.
Scope
Multi-homed anycast with upstream transit via Neptune Networks and Vultr. No transit offered to third parties.
Services
Self-hosted services and labs (details intentionally minimal).
Routing notes
Upstream transits
- Transit 1: Neptune Networks (AS21700) — New York City
- Transit 2: Vultr (AS20473) — Piscataway, NJ
Announcements
- IPv6: 2620:5a:d000::/48
- IPv4: 23.144.84.0/24
Policy (informal)
- Best-effort only; no guarantees.
- No transit or downstream customers (origin-only).
- Receives upstream transit from AS21700 (NYC) and AS20473 (New Jersey).
- Multi-homed anycast announcements (same prefixes announced from multiple locations/providers).
- Filtering/security: RPKI (ROAs) + IRR-based hygiene.
- See PeeringDB for peering/contact details that need to stay current.
